May 4, 1970 - During the Vietnam War, a combined US & Army of South Vietnam military operation enters Cambodia to locate and destroy North Vietnamese and Viet Cong sanctuaries. A Cambodian youth named Samnang (‘Lucky’) and an ornery but likable wedding musician make their way through the conflict. They encounter landmines, surreal Cambodian ghosts known as 'Arbs', and marauding helicopters as they go.
